Hour of Flash 1 (comp now closed)

[RazoRmedia]

Ok people, lets see how creative you can be.

What is it?
The hour of flash is a competition that we used to run in the early days of Flashkit. We set a date for the competition (next week) and at that given date, a phrase is given. The contestants then have an hour to make a flash movie / game / presentation on the chosen theme.

Hmmm, sounds interesting, what else do I need to know?
The swf file can be as small or as big as you like (width and height wise), can be animated, static, coded etc The only limits are your imagination. All finished swf files must be less than 100k and must only include graphics and code created in the hour.

OK, when is it?
Wednesday July 2nd - 20:00 GMT

Nice one, what do I need
Access to the web, a version of Flash (any version) and an email address.

Okay people, sign up here

Dude, I don't have to enter a design comp to know that these youngsters would kick my unimaginative, corporate-style arse all over the shop.

Hence my lack of participation in the Battle forum.

Anyway, next week's my birthday - I'm going for a 7-day booze up 'fest to beat all fests' party.

you get the theme and have one hour from that point to produce something, if it's not submited by the time an hour's passed you're out.
